Madem Unless a Decree of Divorce is passed by the Court of Competent Jurisdiction, your continue to be Legally Married Wife of your husband. However, this is subject to Religion / Cast to which you belong, because in some CAST customary divorce i.e. divorce through internal family mode is permission and valid under the law. So, if you belong to such notified cast, then perhaps your Divorce is valid, however, you can still challenge the same in the Court, and claim your right as Married Wife from your husband. Feel free to contact should you need assistance.

You should go to Women cell at your city's police station. Register a complaint at women cell . They will call your husband and can help for settling your issue. If he is not ready for compromise then file a case of restitution of conjugal rights in court.
